ProPhoto RGB to YUV(EBU) Converter - Color Space Converter

ProPhoto RGB color space introduction

Also known as the ProPhoto RGB color space.There are 3 channels in total, Red,range from 0 to 1.Green,range from 0 to 1.Blue,range from 0 to 1.
ProPhoto RGB, also known as ROMM RGB (Reference Output Medium Metric), was developed by Kodak. It offers an exceptionally wide gamut, designed for use in professional photography to ensure reproducibility of most colors found in nature.
ProPhoto RGB color space.
In the ProPhoto RGB color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels, with a gamut much wider than traditional sRGB.
ProPhoto RGB is primarily used in the field of professional photography, particularly suitable for processing images with high dynamic range and wide color gamut.
Due to its vast gamut, ProPhoto RGB is especially suited for high-end image processing and printing tasks that require extreme color fidelity.

YUV(EBU) color space introduction

Also known as the YUV(EBU) color space.There are 3 channels in total,Y,range from 0 to 1.U,range from -0.5 to 0.5.V,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
Origin: The YUV color space was designed for analog video signal transmission, separating luminance information (Y) from chrominance information (U and V) to improve the efficiency of color transmission and ensure compatibility with black and white television.
Primary Names: YUV color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, and 'U' and 'V' represent the chrominance components, describing the difference in color from a reference white.
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YUV(0.5, -0.33, 0.25) represents a color with specific luminance and chrominance.
Usage Scope: Mainly used in analog video transmission and compression. In modern applications, YUV is common in digital video encoding and broadcasting, video editing software, and image processing.
Additionally, the YUV format is very effective in color processing to reduce bandwidth requirements because it allows the resolution of chrominance components to be reduced during transmission rather than luminance components, taking advantage of the human eye's greater sensitivity to luminance over chrominance changes.
